Had Dante known' of its existence, it prob- ably, would have served to stimulate ltie imagination to still more fantastic flights.

The sensation produced by walking over its surface is much like that of treading upon some great beast whose flesh gives beneath the feet—it is soft, blood -warm, and the wrinkles over its surface in the blinding light of the sun seem to rise and fall with his breathing and the water which gathers in the furrows suggests that the ani- mal is perspiring. It is Bald that the area or the pitch. bearing lake Is 110 acres and no one knows how deep it is. There Is an almost uncanny feature connected with the removal of the asphalt frons the area. Rails and sleepers havo been built out Into the lake and each day the laborers dig up chunks of the pitch, which break oft with dry, blue. flint -nice fractures, and throw them Mao ii car which tuns on rails. Each day they make a trough along the aides of the track with their picks and when they return the next morning the trough is filled again level and solid for them to dig up—a furrow that is never finished, Scars "Heal" by Night. - Like the Burning Bush, the hake seems never to be consumed, and like the daughters of Danaus, „who bad to catch water in a sieve, the men never see the results of their labors. At night a great gully runs across the horizon, and at dawn the •surface 18 level again. About every three days, however, the pitch swallows up the rails and the sleepers and they must be raised and readjusted on the surface. Al. though about 100,000 tons or asphalt are being taken from the lake each year, the little track need never be moved; the pitch conies to the rail- ways.
